Microconnect MC-UTP6A005Y networking cable Yellow 0.5 m Cat6a U/UTP (UTP)

The MicroConnect CAT6a Patch Cable (MC-UTP6A005Y) is a 0.5 m U/UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors designed for 10 Gbit/s networks and bandwidths up to 500 MHz. The cable features gold-plated contacts and 50µ" RJ45 connectors for improved signal transfer and durability. Its yellow jacket and meter markings on the boot help with identification and cable management in patch panels and racks.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable supports data rates up to 10,000 Mbit/s and is built to meet the performance needs of demanding network environments. Gold-plated contacts increase contact reliability and reduce corrosion. The 50µ" plated RJ45 connectors and latch protection reduce the risk of connector damage, while the short 0.5 m length minimizes clutter and signal degradation in tight installations.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s LAN connections between switches and patch panels
• High-bandwidth links in server rooms and data centers
• Short runs for clean cable management in racks and wall outlets

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router or NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port on the patch panel or another device. Ensure the latch clicks into place to secure the connection and use the meter markings on the boot to verify the cable length when organising multiple cables. For best performance, avoid tight bends and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a patch cable for short interconnects within racks or between adjacent devices where 10G performance is required; for longer runs follow structured cabling guidelines and consider permanent link cables designed for in-wall or conduit installation.
